for context: the shocked dude and red hair guy are from the same idol group and are obviously both chart artists, they just too goofy like that
ALSO NINJAGO REFERENCE???

tldr: if you a fan of debut or die there is ZERO reason not to read this cos imo, it's just as good. if lazy just read manhwa PLSS you will not regret
hot take but i think the group interactions in trashy pd are so entertaining and dare i say, cuter than debut or die which is honestly so hard to beat (sorry lord bds nim i have forsaken you) im a sucker for unreliable narrators and mc fits the bill so good, no one in his idol group is clueless and can each carry their own. i believe one of the characters is a second mc too (red hair guy in the pic^) (don't quote me on this) (he's so shrouded in mystery but acts so nonchalant what else can he be)
Honestly the mc is so tuff, he owns his evilness and it's not even cringe??, bro’s real good at microsoft ppt and can create a beautiful slide deck in 30min, only -0.1 cos the worldbuilding isn’t as good as DOD, nvm i lied, i suddenly remembered it is
plot: "Trashy" PD (Seo Hoyun) who's infamous for "evil edits" rack up "infamy points" and get transmigrated to a parallel universe which is exactly the same as his prev except he's 10 years younger (now 23) and a failed idol with a system (freaking insane worldbuilding too but no spoilers :D)
According to namuwiki: His specialty is intimidation, and his hobby is appeasement. (that's pretty accurate actually)
I like that select people like his brother still remembers when he used to be a PD (also their sibling dynamics are so hilarious)
its so freaking underrated and i'm absolutely gobsmacked it's not on the same level of popularity as debut or die
(the AI songs on youtube by Newru are so gd IM SRY) (they also make DOD songs)
